    “This is too painful. Spelling your own city's name wrong. Imagine the thoughts of anyone else from outside Plymouth reading this. Good show Herald!”

    “Foreign taxi drivers in Plymouth? I am sure we are all English? But I do know of one company who takes on recruits from other country's. I thought they were just sent here for work experience and to learn how not to abuse customers. Well if there are foreign taxis in Plymouth the public still use them, we must all love the fast safe cheap service they TRY to give us. lol”

    “Can not fine him for being in the bus lane, was it the buses he held up don't matter about the other motorist who now have the buses in everyone else's lanes. You want to see the congestion at Derriford hospital with the extra traffic from the Eye infirmary now. They now have car parking attendants directing everyone on the merry go round of car parks looking for the moment anyone pulls out of a space. How well thought out everything is in Plymouth. You Know what the say about a good booze up now.”

    “@jenn11

    Its a stock picture. They use it all the time. in this event it seems misplaced if there wasnt an accident though, i agree. But going by the spelling in the article, it seems it was either rushed, or typed up by a trained monkey.”

    “That road has plenty of lanes, can't they just push it to one side?”

    “If its broken down why have police put up an accident notice? If taxi was in his designated lane with the buses there shouldn't have been too much of a delay!!!! But this probably case of " oh no they can use any lane cos they're taxis" !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
